Our Mission
The Entoto Foundation is dedicated to helping Ethiopians gain access to medical care and treatment that is otherwise not available to them. With only 1 doctor for every 40,000 people, Ethiopians have very limited or no access to medical care that you or I would consider "basic." The money we raise helps pay for critical medical equipment, supplies, and medicine as well as the training of health care personnel in Ethiopia. When essential medical procedures or treatments are not available within Ethiopia, the Entoto Foundation provides funds and logistical support for patients to obtain health care abroad.

The Entoto Foundation operates with a highly dedicated, all-volunteer staff. We also have a sponsor who helps pay for fundraising and other miscellaneous expenses. Nearly 100% of your contributions go to those people we have pledged to help!

Tom Bedford's 2:25 Marathon Quest for Entoto Continues
The bets were on and the pace was fast. Maybe too fast as England’s Tom Bedford came up short of his goal of a sub-2:25 marathon at last Sunday’s Rock `n` Roll Marathon in San Diego. But his final time of 2:47:41 didn’t tell the whole story of his brave effort, or give full measure to the rewards his hard work has already garnered for the Entoto Foundation.
“Thank you very much for all that you’ve done for Entoto,” wrote foundation president Rich Jayne to Tom after the race. “And I hope you’ve recovered from the marathon. While you haven’t hit 2:25 yet, you have brought our cause some great publicity. I can’t say enough how appreciative all of us at Entoto are.” Read more...
